Thai policemen inspect the site of a car bomb blast in Thailand's restive southern province of Narathiwat on June 7, 2009. Police said two persons were killed and 19 injured when 50 kilograms of explosive packed in a car were detonated through a mobile phone. More than 3,600 people have been killed and thousands more injured in five years of separatist violence across the three restive provinces of Pattani, Yala and Narathiwat. Buddhist-majority Thailand annexed the ethnic Malay area in 1902, sparking decades of tension. (Getty Images)
